Weekend: Date Night

"G" Man

Oh Monday -- are you here again? I hope you all had a great weekend. G & I spent the time walking around in this beautiful weather. Weekends are the best. And, it's awesome when you don't have a schedule -- all you need is great company and great food. 

How was your weekend?

White Dresses x2

Fashion Fundamental:  A classic sheath dress - Sheath dresses are appropriate for just about any occasion where you want to look smart and polished.  These versatile dresses can take you from desk to dinner -- and even date night.

From time to time, Banana Republic releases a dress in this ultra-flattering silhouette, and I always like seeing the iterations of this dress.

My adorable niece also chose to rock a white dress on her big day. :D

Mod Mrs. Claus: Loft Mod Shift Dress

I recently discovered this mod inspired dress from the Loft. It has an interesting shape and is easy to pair with several items. I thought this orange frock needed some depth so I added a chunky beltl according to Ailyn, this is pretty reminiscent of Mrs. Claus - so here's my ode to her! I also showcased it without the belt so you can see the cut of the dress unhindered by any accessory. Now I'm all set for my friend's holiday party! 

Dress: Mod Shift Dress ($79.50 $39), Loft | shop

Tights: Reversible Tights, SPANX via Ann Taylor ($34 ) | shop - These are a legit pair of tights that I picked up during Ann Taylor's 40% off + 30% off sale for a a decent price of $14.28.  They are reversible (allegedly one side is black & the other brown, but both sides look the same to me. lol).  They are a little short, so I'd size up if you're interested.

Belt: Express (so old)
Headband:  Claire's

Necklace: Borrowed from Wilma

Shoes: Minas Ankle Bootie, Jessica Simpson | shop

Ann Taylor Cheetah Print Cardi

I'm working on upping my animal print game after being inspired by the BDIB animal print challenge. Ann Taylor offer some beautifully made animal prints. I'm a big fan, and highly recommend checking out their prints. 

Additionally, these booties are the best! They are perfect for fall and I just keep wanting to wear them. Check out how I styled them with another dress.

Happy Tuesday and thank you for reading!

Big Pimpin'

These puffy shoulders are a good time! It's perfect for evening drinks and this striped number is sassy and fun. I paired it with these Jessica Simpson ankle boots, which have proven to be a versatile piece. They are great with leggings or skirts. I'm a fan of these boots and they are pretty comfortable. I got them last season, but the good news is you can still get them and they come in snakeskin.

Oh, hey Tuesday. Let's make it a pimpin one....
